I seen plenty of ppl take off quick in manuals tho the slow gear changers are the ones that bug me.

Sick of driving manual now. Just a pain in the arse around town, although obviously more fun out of town. Next car going to be auto

If it makes people losers for getting somewhere a bit later, lets call people who get to their end destination soaking wet losers also.

So many weird people prefer to wear seat belts over motorbike helmets. I dont get it!

I enjoy driving manual more, but for the majority of the time when I'm driving, which was back in Perth and in the city/suburbs, I choose auto out of convenience.
